very poor analogy. In reality, the efforts being taken to prevent the "big
mess" are causing a bigger mess. It is a bit like throwing a hand grenade
into your living room to stop the carpet getting dirty.
Bringing in some irrelevant comment about gender difference does nothing to
support your argument. You have no idea as to the real gender of the people
you are conversing with.

You have become fixated with this "mess prevention" and, at best, it is aIn article <P6-dnSajh_Dt4LvYnZ2dnUVZ8qudnZ2d@pipex.net>,

Amazing really.
So much for mess prevention. So how many people does Bin Laden
have to kill before you deal with this problem? 300,000?
3,000,000? 300,000,000? A billion?
What makes you think any of the above are even remotely possible ?
Because I can think of one that will kill a billion in less
than 1/2 year. If I can think it, they certainly can. They
were brought in a culture that admires killing; I wasn't.
I can think about space aliens invading and making everyone die their hair
red. Doesn't mean it is going to happen.
You can deal with things you _think_ will happen or deal with things which
are happening.
I know which makes more sense to me.
I understand what makes more sense to you. I was brought up to
take action if I can see that a big mess is about to be made
if nothing is done.
I still think this is a difference between males and females.
